I knew it would not be long before I was asking my first stupid question so here goes.
I have had my bike almost a month now and have been out on almost every single night.
Now when I am riding along, when you stop peddling and are coasting you get the ticking sound from the back wheel (a ratchet sort of sound). This is the same sound as you get when you peddle backwards etc.
I hope somebody understands what I am trying to describe here.
I have heard this sound on every single bike I have ever come across.
Well tonight, that sound is gone!
When I am riding along and then stop peddling and start to coast, silence.
When I peddle backwards, silence
The bike seems to be riding OK, gears change, peddles go round, bike moves forward etc but all in a very quiet fashion.
So is this normal or is there something I should be looking at here?
Thanks
